Visit to Bletchley Park -- CANCELLED
Unfortunately, we had to cancel the visit to Bletchley Park as they are fully booked for group tours on Thursday. Instead there will be an informal visit to the Science Museum (which is just around the corner) on Thursday. Please be at the registration desk at 10am on Thursday, if you would like to take part. The Science Museum has a good Computing collection which inlcudes a replica of Babbage's machine, a PDP-8 and one of the world's oldest working electronic computers.
